Intercontinental Tahiti Resort & Spa

In the hub of the city but in a world of it's own, the largest and most luxurious resort on the island of Tahiti is also the most convenient. Located just 6 minutes from the airport, and centrally located in Papeete to downtown shopping, dining, and nightlife, this is the perfect kick off point for your Tahitian vacation. The sight of calm azure waters and the volcanic mountains of Moorea in the distance will instantly captivate you, and the floral-scented breeze will hold you in Tahiti's archetypal spell.

Neatly divided into overwater bungalows on one side, and 8 three-story pavilions with traditional hotel rooms on the other, the resort boasts two freshwater infinity pools surrounded by towering palms and lavish tropical gardens. Shake off jet lag in the full service spa, relax with a drink in the cosmopolitan lobby bar or a tropical cocktail in the poolside bar, dine in the vibrant overwater fine dining restaurant Le Lotus, or easily venture out to explore the city.
